Tii'k Journal kindly mentions Messrs
White unit Gilmore as candidates for
(irnic mtil state senators from Cass
county and in the same breath suggests
that Mr. "White's time is so completely
taken up with the duties of president of
the state organization of "democratic
clubs' that he could scarcely find time to
devote to the canvass for state senator.
"We rather guess Hon. Frank can discern a
small sized rat in the Journal mention
of his exacting official responsibilities.
We notice there is never a word about
'farmer Gilmorc'd large agricultural e
gagements interfering with his spending
his time for months organizing democrat
ic clubs and likewise running for office,
Tha Herald will be satisfied with either
Mr. White or Mr. Gilmore.
The Journal has at last loined issue
with us on the tariff question, and dis
putcs our proposition that the direct way
to cheapen goods and wares,the free-trad
ers demand, is to pull down the wages
of the Americun laboring man. The
Journal is the first free trade advocate
that seriouslr disnutcs this truism. Jo
the irreat debate in the House advocates
of the Mills' bill admitted that the re
suit of free trade would be lower wages
and cheaper goods: all free traders of
intelligence, wc say, admit our proposi
. tion and argue that it is all the same be
cause one dollar .will buy as much in
London f their world's market) as two
will buy in this country under protec
tion. The charges have been rung on
this chestnut until even the Journal man
cannot be ignorant of it. Examine your
Cobden clrb pamphlets and you will be
able to line up with these eminent econ
omists. But the economist of the Jour
nal goes off on the proposition that labor
saving machinery has kept up wages.
Exactly ! that is an admission your class
of free traders have been avoiding ! It
is these manuf acturies that protection has
fostered and builded up that has made a
market for labor in this country and the
demand has kept up the price, not tin
machinery ! A steam press wont do it
but the demand for skilled labor docs
So, we come back to our own proposition;
.bieak down these manufacturies witl
your revenue reform, free trade policy and
you cheapen labor, that moment, in thi
country;the men thus denied employment
will compete in their demand for oth
er employment; their ability to purchast
will be destroyed; cheap goods withou
duty will flood the country; the health
of the markets will be destroyed and thc-
Lusiness of this prosperous country will
again be paralyzed. The Ik st thing th
Journal can do is to stick by its fre
trade pamphlet literature and not veil
ture on any untrodden paths, else it mn
find itself again building up a protect! r
argument.
WHY HE "THANKED COD
The Exact Words of Prohibition
Candidate Brooks-
Decatck. 111., Aug. 17. Special.
The publishers of the Decatur Daily Jie-publU-an
haye prepared the following
in printed form in answer to many letters
of inquiry from different sections of the
country:
Decatur, 111., Aug. 17. The recent
utterance of Dr. John A. Brooks, tin
prohibitionist candidate for viee-presi
dent, at Decatur, to the effect that he
'thanked God he had never been a repub-
iican, na caueu iortn so many inquiries
from all portions of the country that to
satisfy them the affidavit of Mr. John J.
II. Young Jr., the city editor of the De
catur Daily Republican, has been pro
cured to the same effect. But, as Dr.
Brooks admitted in his speech at Bloom-
ington, 111., two days later, that he had
made the assertion referred to, it is hard
ly necessary to multiply statements,
though two are added to show that others
heard the language one from the Key.
S. P. Hoy, who has always been an anti
saloon republican, and one from L. F.
3Iuzzy, Esq., who represented the second
ward of Decatur as an anti-license alder
man in the city council for six years
The denial of Dr. Brooks as to the report
published in the Chicago Tribune is a?
to the intention of the statement made
and docs not deny the language, and
coming as it did after the acknowledge
ment in the Bloomington ppecch requires
no further comment:
" 'State of Illinois, Macon County, ss.:
John J. H. Young, Jr., being lirst duly
sworn, upon his oath deposes and says:
l ntn Hi years 01 age aim naveiiveu in iw-
catur, 111., since 1850. I am by occupation
a newspaper reporter, and in that capacity
attended the series of meetings ot tne
National Prohibition camp meeting, held
at Oakland Park, Decatur, 111., during
the month of July, 1888. I was at the
said camp-meeting the afternoon of
Thursday, July 20, 1888, when there was
a large crowd present, many ot whom
were republicans. At said time and place
Dr. John A. Brooks, the ex-confederate
prohibition candidate for vice-president,
addressed the meeting and gave utterance
to the following language:
" "I have lived in the south and
I owned slaves there. I sympathized
with the south and prayed for the success
of the confederate cause, but my prayers
were not answered. I have been a dem
ocrat, but, thank God" here thespaiker
shook his head, at the same tmc raising
hi iirm nnd Hhakin" his finirer at the
audience "I have never been a republi
can. I will never have that sin to answer
for."

"lis is a good deal more trouble to fit
lady than you would imagine, " said a fash
ionable ladies' tailor, as he sat in his elegantly
furnished office and motioned a servant to
bring a chair for his visitor, "because you
see, ladies are very peculiar. I have been in
this business for years and have had dealings
with every kind oi lady in this country and
in Europe. How are ladies iu&aurd.? Well,
first they take off their outer waist, leaving
their necks and arms bare. Then tho fitter
measures them from the collar to the waist
in the back: iha idtb of the back is taken
at its widest and narrowesi parts, tho front
from the base dl the throat" to tia waist,
next from under arm i the waist, and theij
the size of the throat is taken. After tliat
we take the measurement of tn3 basj waist
and hips. That done, the inside length of
tho sleeve is taken, and the circumferpnoo of
tbe biceps. The measure of tho skirt is nxc
taken, up, down and around. Then we" have
three fittings. First in the rough, second
with more perfect linings and lastly when
everything is completed."
"How do you 'make up' a poor figure?"
"That's an art. For instance-, a lady ul
come who is as thin as a rail, with no bust,
110 arms, no shoulders. We have to use cot
ton wadding to supply her deficiencies.
That's where a good titter comes in. A
bungler would make her look lumpy, but" an
artist in his line turns her out a model. Then
suppose a big, fleshy lady comes along. She
has an immense expanse of breast. Of course
that must be broken. Wo usually break the
bodice into four lines by a rever of the same
cloth. Your eyo can only travel from pan
line to the other, and before it has passed
irouud all of them tho mind forgets to no
ciea the expanse. A perfectly plain botlieo
s very trying except to a perfect figure. In
.hat event, of course, it only sets it off. It
o not often I advise plain fronts, so few can
tand them."
"How do American ladi&s compare with
Zjiglish and French in their figures?
"I would say they stood in between. The
7reneh woman is tho perfection of style. Her
arriago is inimitable; whatever she weal's
ocms individual and perfect. I can tell a
Yench woman two blocks behind by her
valk. Their forms are l. so rouuded as tho
English, and their shoulders are usually
(juarer. The Americans, on the other hand,
ire more slender and delicate than tbe Eng
Jsh, while they have some of that iudccril
ible ehic of the French. In England, you
know, the ladies lead an active out of door
iife, which makes them robust and gives them
;ood busts and rounded arms. Here there is
not much attempt at exercise, except in
affectation."
"How do New York ladiej: compare in their
figure with western and southern girls?"
"I don't think thero is any dispute about
the fact that New York ladles are tbe most
stylish on the continent. Many of our society
ladies would be mistaken for French women.
The southern lady is usually thinner than
the New Yorker, and more languid in all
her motions. The western girl is heavier,
tho outlines are more accentuated, and she Is
not so stylish. Some of the western girls
would be models of beauty if they were not
a little too fleshy. It is not the hard, firm
flesh that comes from exercise, but tbe loose
flesh of eating a trifle more than the amount
of exorcise taken would warrant. Many
New Yorkers are more graceful than the
Parisiennes. If American girls could only
be induced to take a little more active exer
cise out of doors, they would be the models
of the modern human form. New York
World.
A Warning.
The modes of death's approach are va
rious, and statistics show conclusively
that more persons die from disease of the
hroat and lungs than any other. It is
probable that everyone, without excep
tion, receives vast numbers of Tubercle
Germs into the system and where these
serins fall upon suitable soil they start
iuto life and develop, at first slowly and
is shown by a slisdit tickling sensation in
the throat and if allowed to continue their
ravages they extend to the lungs produc
ing Consumption and to the head, caus
ing Catarrh. Now all this is dangerous
and if allowed to continue will in time
cause death. At tbe onset you must act
with promptness; allowing a cold to go
without attention is dangerous and may
oose you your life. As soon as you feel
at something is wrong with your throat,
Iugs or nostrils, obtain a bottle of Bos
sheVa German Syrop. It will giye you
immediate relief. ,

OCB MRKCHAKT MARINE,
We earnestly recommend that prompt action
lie taken in crgiess in the e actinent of so.cn
legislation as w ill best secure the rehabilita
tion of our American merchant marine, and
we protest against the passage by congress of
a free ship bill as calculated to work injustice
to labor by lessening the wages of those en
gaged in preparing materials as well as those
directly employed in our shipyards. We de
mand appropriations for the efirly rebuilding
of our navy, for the construction of coast
fortifications and modern ordinance and other
approved modern means of defense for the
protection ot our defenseless harbors and
cities, for the payment of just pensions to; our
soldiers, for nooessary works of national im
portance in the improvement of. tbe harbors
and channels ot internal, ooastwiser -and
I foreign commerce, for the encouragement of
of the Atlantic. Golf
and Pacific states a well as for the paynie t
of the maturing public debt. This policy will
give employment toour labor, activity to our
various Industries. Increased security to our
counfry, promote trade, open new and direct
markets for our products and cheain the cost
of transportation. We aihriu this to be far
better for our country than tne democratic
policy of loaning the government's money
without interest to "pet banks."
FORKI4.N 11KLATIONS.
The conduct of foreign affairs by the present
administration has been distinguished by Inef
ficiency and cowardice. Having withdrawn
from the senate all pending tieatles effected
by republican administrators for the removal
of foreign burdens and restrictions upon our
commeice and for its extension into a better
market, it has neither affected nor proposed
any others in their stead. Professing adher
ence to the Monroe doctrire. it has seen with
Idle complacency the extension of foreign In
fluence in Central America and of foreign trade
eveiywhere among our neighbors, li has re
fused to charter, sanctiou or encourage any
American orgHiiizytion for constructing the
Nicaragua canal, a work of vtal importance to
the maintenance of the Monroe doctrine and
of our national inlluence in Central and South
America, and necessaiy fo- the development
of trade with our Hacillc territory, with South
America, and with the fuither coasts of the
Pacific Ocean.
FISHERIES QUESTION.
We arraign the present democratic adminis
tration for its weak and unpatriotic treatment
of the fisheries question, and its pusillanimous
surrender of all privilege. to which our fishery
vtsiuls are entitled in Canadian purls under
the treaty of iJrf. ih3 reciprocate niarin
tine legislation of isao and e6in' tf nations,
and which Canadian fishing vessels receive 'iu
tiie ports of the United States. Ne coiricmn
tho policy of the present administration ami
the democratic majority in congress towards
our lWheries as unfriendly and conspiciously
unpatriotic and as tendintadestroy a valuable
national industry and an iudispensible resource
pf defense against foreign enemy.
The i:2.nie of American applies alike to all
cilizens'bf tbe epal)!!', and imposes upon men
alike the same' obligation oi o;.e:!ence to the
laws. At the same time cbizeiiship Is and .,iujt

should and mostajlprd him protection at home
and follow arid project him abroad in V.'J'a'eyer
laud he may be on a lawful 'errand.
CIVIL. SERVICE REFORM-
The men who a3i)doiit?d tho republican par
ty in JtKSi and continue to adhere to the demo
cratic party have deserted not only the cause
of honest government, but of sound finance, of
freedom iand purity of the ballot, but espec
ially have deserted the cause of reform in the
civil service. We will not fall to keep our
pledges because tl ey have broken theirs, or
becatists thvjr candidate has broken his. We
therefore repeat our u.oia.rat'on of I.SK4, towit :
The reform of eivil seric-e arspiciOurily began
under republican administration should be
completed by a further extension of tli reform
system already established by law to all grades
of tne ;.ei t'ic2 to w hich it is applied. The spir
it and purpose pf reform gnould be observed iu
all executive appointments, and all laws at
varience with the object of existing refprpi 1-g-UiatKui
should c repealed, and that the dan
cers to free institutions whii-h lurk iu the pow
er f official patronage may be wisely and ef
fectively avoided.
The gratitude of the nation to the defender
of the union cannot be assured except bv laws.
The legislation of congress should conform to
the pledges made by a loyal people, and be so
enlarged and extended as to prov'de against
tno poc.jblhty tnat any ma i who honorably
worethe'iederaVii,foTm oha'fl become an in
mate of an almsbotisa or dependent op t rivate
charity. In the presence of an oversowing
treasury H would btt a public scandal to do less
for those wjjose valorous service preserved the
government. We denounce the hostile spirit
shown by President Cleveland in his numerous
vetoes of measures for pension relief, and the
a:tia'i of the democratic house of representa
tJVej i.i iftiusip.ee jpu-ii i llation of general
pension IctgisiaUCii, ! '- ' r ": '' i1 . 1'
In support of the principles herewith enun
ciated, we invite tha co-operation of patriotic
men of all parties, especially of all working
men whose prosperity is seriously threatened
by the free trade policy of the present admiu-lj'-r
